Sensex crash: Dalal Street now faces trust deficit




MUMBAI: Derivative traders have become pessimistic about the prospects of the near-term market after the Nifty fell below the psychological 6000-mark on Tuesday.

“Option writers (sellers) have unwound their positions in 6000 put, which had the highest amount of open interest, implying weakness for the Nifty,” said Manoj Murlidharan, AVP-Derivatives, IIFL-PReMIA. “Investors should use any relief rally to exit their long positions,” he said.

The Nifty fell 133 points, or 2.2%, to 5988.70 on Tuesday, tracking weakness in global markets. Nifty November futures closed at a six-point premium to the spot as against 16 points on Monday, suggesting unwinding of long positions.

“This drop in premium was due to the spurt in short positions created in the system in the past two trading sessions. Earlier, institutions hedged their positions by buying Nifty futures due to which the premium was maintained, but, with the change in sentiment, investors have been selling heavily,” Mr Murlidharan said.

Foreign institutions have sold Nifty futures worth Rs 4,000 crore in the past five trading sessions and have written (sold) call options of 6100 and 6200 strikes, suggesting that the Nifty could find it tough to cross these levels.

While call options of 6200 and 6300 strikes saw over 81 lakh and 98 lakh units added in open interest, 6100 put saw heavy unwinding of positions as it shed more than 12 lakh units in open interest.

Traders expect the Nifty to correct till 5850-5875 levels as most of the stocks have witnessed delivery-based selling. Though the Nifty has found good support around 5980 in the past, traders remain wary this time.

The India Volatility Index (VIX), a measure of traders’ expectation of volatility, rose by 4.35% to close at 21.13%. Traders say that with only a few trading sessions remaining before the expiry of the current series, the volatility is expected to increase.

“If the global markets do not find support, the volatility will increase further below 6000 levels,” said Amit Gupta, Head-Derivatives, ICICI Securities .

He advised against creating fresh short positions at current levels. Traders should wait for a spike till the 6030-6050 levels, before short-selling again, he said.

Market Reports (Its my 1700th Post)





 Jet flies high as co draws fresh interest

Shares of Jet Airways soared 11% on Tuesday to . 890.25, after touching a fresh 52-week high of . 896.40 earlier in the day. Total traded volumes were 15 times the two-week average. Analysts said the recent interest among investors in the stock follows the company’s better-than-expected earnings show in July-September.

The buzz is that ‘Pink Panther’ and associates have been buyers of this stock of late. The company’s profit quadrupled in a period, which is normally subdued. Investors have also taken note of the company’s efforts to reduce interest costs. Analysts believe that the airline industry must refrain from increasing capacity for companies’ profits to improve.

Power Grid soars on FPO frenzy

Shares of stateowned Power Grid Corporation rose 5.5% to . 103.75 on Tuesday over five times the twoweek average traded volumes. Interestingly , the frenzied buying of Power Grid shares in the secondary market at this price comes when its follow-on public offering (FPO), which has opened on Tuesday, is accepting bids at . 85-90 apiece. The sudden jump in premium in the current market price to the FPO price may entice investors, who see an opportunity to buy in the FPO and sell it at a higher price, to subscribe to the public issue.

But the question is, will this premium sustain even after the public is-sue closes on Friday ? There have been instances in the past where share prices of state-owned companies have shot up ahead of the FPO, but slid soon after the issue closed. Traders, who borrowed to buy in the FPO and sell on listing of the fresh issue to make a quick buck, lost money in the process.
